I’ve always been into anti-aging but, last year, when I hit 30, I REALLLLY got into anti-aging. For serious.

I always rave about all things Kate Somerville but, as of late, the Kate Somerville RetAsphere 2-in-1 Retinol Night Cream is pretty damn amazing. To start, they did clinical studies that showed in just two weeks 70% of testers experiences significant smoothing of wrinkles (that’s a LOT) and a whopping 96% showed a significant increase in elasticity and firmness. Sure, I’m always still skeptical of “miracle” products, especially when it comes to anti-aging, but after testing it out for myself (for about three weeks) I am incredibly impressed. I absolutely see a difference in firmness and definitely also see an improvement in the fine lines around my eye area (aka crow’s feet).

So how does it do it? The RetAsphere Smart Release Carrier System delivers pure Retinol in a lipid shell that melts evenly into the epidermis—where it is most effective—while Seaweed Extract, with bio-derived Hyaluronic Acid, helps prevent over-drying by locking in hydration where and when skin needs it most.

Now you only want to use this product at NIGHT because Retinol is not good in the sun, I repeat…DO NOT WEAR THIS DURING THE DAY IF YOU DON’T HAVE SPF ON OVER IT. Sorry for yelling, but that fact is important. 🙂
